What's a good VOIP provider for an Orem resident with Comcast broadband?

Last Friday they thought they had it fixed, finally, but it's been flaky all weekend. A little better, but still bad. So I'm reluctantly switching. They were responsive and great until the end of last month. But now I'm wondering if they'll every get my phone working again. FWIW, From: "Daniel C."

If they didn't make the switch today, I'd imagine it will be in the next couple of days. He said they were absolutely horrible. We've got them at work, and it's been decent most of the time, but the last week we have had a few glitches. We were getting 2 second lag time for a little bit. We're on iProvo, though, so we had initially assumed it was just their usual problems. and so forth....
